EN: approximation
Your best guess. It's the "mga more or less" of mathematics and life. When you're telling your friend what time you'll arrive, and you say "mga 7 PM," that's an aproksimasyon. It's the official term for "hula-hula pero medyo may basis."
From Spanish 'aproximación' (approximation).
Primarily used in technical, mathematical, or formal contexts. In everyday conversation, 'tantiya' or 'mga' is more common.
